I’d suggest making balance sheets for each year to exported.
Afterwards I would use File\Export\Transactions to CSV.
There I would select the appropriate time range.
I also would export the account structure to CSV.
In the one-year-only file I would import the account structure and  make
entries for the opening balances.
Lastly I would import the transactions from the CSV files.

Kind regards
